The synaptic vesicle cluster as a controller of pre‐ and postsynaptic structure and function
Abstract figure legend The synaptic vesicle cluster acts as a master regulator of synaptic structure and function, through various involvements in processes that range from synaptic initiation to plasticity and synaptic loss. Abstract The synaptic vesicle cluster (SVC) is an essential component of chemical synapses, which provides neurotransmitter ...

Metabolic etiologies in West syndrome
Summary West syndrome (WS) is an early life epileptic encephalopathy associated with infantile spasms, interictal electroencephalography (EEG) abnormalities including high amplitude, disorganized background with multifocal epileptic spikes (hypsarrhythmia), and often neurodevelopmental impairments.

Human neuronal stargazin-like proteins, γ_2, γ_3 and γ_4; an investigation of their specific localization in human brain and their influence on Ca_V2.1 voltage-dependent calcium channels expressed in Xenopus oocytes [PDF]
Background: Stargazin (γ2) and the closely related γ3, and γ4 transmembrane proteins are part of a family of proteins that may act as both neuronal voltage-dependent calcium channel (VDCC) γ subunits and transmembrane α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4 ...

Role for neonatal D-serine signaling: prevention of physiological and behavioral deficits in adult Pick1 knockout mice [PDF]
NMDA glutamate receptors play key roles in brain development, function, and dysfunction. Regulatory roles of D-serine in NMDA receptor-mediated synaptic plasticity have been reported.

Stargazin Modulates Native AMPA Receptor Functional Properties by Two Distinct Mechanisms [PDF]
AMPA receptors play a central role in basal excitatory synaptic transmission as well as synaptic maturation and plasticity. The transmembrane AMPA receptor regulatory protein (TARP) stargazin (γ2) serves multiple roles in trafficking and stabilizing synaptic AMPA receptors and may be incorporated as an auxiliary subunit.

This research uncovers a novel phosphorylation‐regulated phase separation property of SDC4 on the PM by which SDC4 realizes efficient recruitment of cytosolic syntenin and thereby facilitates the biogenesis of exosomes, providing potential intervention targets for exosome‐involved biomedical events. Abstract The biogenesis of exosomes that mediate cell‐

Emerging Synaptic Molecules as Candidates in the Etiology of Neurological Disorders
Synapses are complex structures that allow communication between neurons in the central nervous system. Studies conducted in vertebrate and invertebrate models have contributed to the knowledge of the function of synaptic proteins. The functional synapse requires numerous protein complexes with specialized functions that are regulated in space and time

Proteomic Analysis of Postsynaptic Protein Complexes Underlying Neuronal Plasticity [PDF]
Normal neuronal communication and synaptic plasticity at glutamatergic synapses requires dynamic regulation of postsynaptic molecules. Protein expression and protein post-translational modifications regulate protein interactions that underlie this ...

Reconstitution of invertebrate glutamate receptor function depends on stargazin-like proteins [PDF]
α-Amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptors (AMPARs) are a major subtype of ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) that mediate rapid excitatory synaptic transmission in the vertebrate brain. Putative AMPARs are also expressed in the nervous system of invertebrates.
